When we were in love, or whatever it was
We tore apart their believing hearts
Just to ride that passion in
We survived ok, through the mess we made
But I don't know how we can come back now
And try to be friends again.

'Cause when I see you I can't let the past remain the past
All that heartache we brought on comes rushing back so fast
I can't see no road ahead, just pulls me down somehow
And there's so much water under that bridge, it must be sinking now.

With a shiver and chill, it haunts me still
What a fool I was to have almost lost
Most of what's dear to me
From the very first touch, we took too much
In the fire we found I was burnin' down
And just too blind to see.

'Cause when I see you I can't let the past remain the past
All that heartache we brought on comes rushing back so fast
I can't see no road ahead, just pulls me down somehow
And there's so much water under that bridge, it must be sinking now.

If we had just held on - maybe once
Seen beyond our fire
But our try agains and might have beens
Were swept away when we were, when we were.

'Cause when I see you I can't let the past remain the past
All that heartache we brought on comes rushing back so fast
I can't see no road ahead, just pulls me down somehow
And there's so much water under that bridge, it must be sinking now...
